The origins of the Black Garden are largely unknown; however, it bears many similarities to an allegorical description of the primordial state of reality, itself described as a "[[garden]]", in which the [[Darkness]] and [[Light]] existed before the universe began. It is unclear whether the two locations are the same; however, [[Eris Morn]] writes of a [[Tree of Silver Wings]] that was felled in the Black Garden, which would seem to suggest that she believes the Black Garden to indeed be the same as the primordial garden that gave rise to the universe. | The origins of the Black Garden are largely unknown; however, it bears many similarities to an allegorical description of the primordial state of reality, itself described as a "[[garden]]", in which the [[Darkness]] and [[Light]] existed before the universe began.

Long before | Long before anyone from the Last City set foot in the Garden, tales of its existence were told throughout the system. The [[Warlock]] [[Pujari]] had a vision of the Garden when he drowned himself in the waters of the [[Shores of Time]].<ref name = "Pujari">'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Legend:_The_Black_Garden|Legend: The Black Garden]]''</ref> Pujari's vision mentions that the Black Garden's existence is related to the Traveler's coming to Mars; the Traveler did not create the Garden, Pujari claims, but its actions may have allowed the Garden to come into existence. Pujari also stated that "The Garden grows in both directions. It grows into tomorrow and yesterday. The red flowers bloom forever. There are gardeners now. They came into the garden in vessels of bronze and they move through the groves in rivers of thought."<ref name = "Pujari"/> The "gardeners" in question are most likely the Vex; Pujari's vision suggests that the Vex did not always inhabit the Black Garden, but came to existence after the [[Darkness|life]] within the Garden called out a question, to which the Vex reached out as the answer. | ||
The [[Cloud Strider]] [[Rohan]] of [[Neomuna]] stumbled upon the Black Garden early in his career, after being tasked with guarding the [[CloudArk]]-[[Nexus]] border by his mentor [[Tramontane]]. While trying to find a way out of the Garden, he witnessed the creation of the [[Black Heart]] by the [[Conceptual Mind]], and deduced that it was an attempt by the Sol Divisive to replicate the [[the Veil|Veil]]. He also overheard the voice of one of [[Maya Sundaresh]]'s many Vex-simulated copies, presumably as she conversed with her fellow simulated [[Ishtar Collective]] members.<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/deterministic-chaos</ref> | |||
